Riddle us this:
If, in 2-3 years, the industry takes a downturn again, and everyone but JetBlue has to cut pay...and suddenly B6 has the highest narrowbody pay...
Where does that put your position on SWA?
Point being, SWA did to pilot pay pre 9/11 the same thing that you claim JetBlue is doing to it right now. Yet, in your "the only thing that matters is NOW" world, that fact is forgiven with SWA.
Would it also be forgiven at JetBlue if eventually their pay rates were industry leading...not because the rates were raised, but because everyone else's dropped?
Wait....I can almost hear the answer all ready....."No, because they're a bunch of non-union proto-scabs who are just waiting to cross a picket line".
